GT7CVT(1)
π NAME π
gt7cvt β a tape conversion utility, bestie. that's it, that's the whole job π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
gt7cvt
no flags, no options, no drama. just the command name sitting there looking cute. π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
okay so this manual page gives you the quick little rundown of the gt7cvt command, and we need to be honest about something first: this page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program literally does not have a manual page. so bestie, you're getting the Debian-authored version, and honestly? we ate. π₯
here's what the program actually does: it converts a gt7 magtape dump to a SIMH magtape. that's the whole vibe check β gt7 magtape dump in, SIMH magtape out. π¦β¨
and the usage is literally this:
gt7cvt filename
so you hand it a filename, and it does the conversion thing. no cap, that's the entire interface. π
π reminder that the original program has no man page of its own β this page exists purely because Debian said "not on my watch" and wrote one. respect the effort, fr fr.
πΈ AUTHOR πΈ
this manual page was written by Vince Mulhollon <vlm@debian.org>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system β (but may be used by others.) π«Ά so like, if you're not on Debian, you're still fully welcome to read it, it's giving generous. π
okay bestie, that's a wrap β this page is from February 25, 2003 and it lives in section 1 of the manual, under GT7CVT(1). iconic little timestamp, mwah π π
